The Best Of Both Worlds

The Best Of Both Worlds

Well I can grow a beard. I went three months without shaving. It was nice to not worry about shaving. Every Time I came close to shaving, I just couldn't do it. Every photo that I took, I look more and more epic! Was the beard that made me look epic or was it in me all along?

The beard looks great, however there were a few drawbacks. One, once you start, it is hard to want to shave. Two, I did get more people eyeballing me. Did I look shady with the beard? Perhaps if I were to tidy of the beard that wouldn't happen, however the point of having a beard was to not shave. Three, it did make me look older. Not really a major downside since I do at times need to look older for acting roles from time to time. And four, I looked more like a hipster. Again not really a downside, however some would rather not look that way. Five, it was hard to eat. I had to have a thousand napkins to dine. I slowly got use to it, however you did have to plan ahead to make sure you had enough napkins to keep your beard clean!

Once I shaved, no one really noticed. Perhaps because I go back and forth with my facial hair. Go a week without shaving, then shave everyday for a week. Looking in the mirror, I did miss the beard. Don't miss the messy eating. And I am glad to know that I can grow it back whenever I want. So I truly have the best of both worlds, beard and no beard! Life is grand!
